HOW TO MAKE THE GRANOLA:
Preheat oven to 180C.

Chop the pecans and almonds and add them to a large tray with the oats, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds.

Once dissolved into a liquid, add to the nuts & seeds and mix everything thoroughly.

Place in the oven and cook for 35-40 minutes, stirring every 5 – 10 minutes to ensure nothing burns. Remove from oven and add the raisins. 

Let the granola cool completely before you store it in an airtight container. You’re going to use the granola a couple times this week.

While sweet potatoes and tofu bake, make the dressing (tahini, sesame oil and soy sauce) and add lemon juice. If the dressing is too thick you can add some water. Massage the kale with the dressing – rubbing the dressing into the leaves so they soften.

SNACKS

SWEET POTATO TOAST
(use half of the ingredients, you need the other half to make the sweet potato toast on Friday)
TIME: 25 MIN 

1 SWEET POTATO
4 TBSP HUMMUS
1 AVOCADO 

Preheat oven to 200C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to help prevent sticking.

Slice the ends of the sweet potato off, then cut it lengthwise into ½ inch thick slices. Arrange the slices in a single layer on the baking sheet, no oil needed (use half of the sweet potato, the other half is for Friday).

Bake until the slices are tender, roughly 20 minutes. You should be able to easily pierce them with a fork when they’re ready, but you don’t want them so soft that they’ll collapse when you add toppings.

Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Spread 2 tbsp hummus on toast and top with ½ of the avocado.
